    Very cooool lens. I'm a L.A. County "Valley" boy myself, having grown up in Tarzana, but I like the OC as well. As a matter of fact, I am typing this blurb while sitting in my hotel room in Garden Grove!
    5 stars Cali style.

    Hey!
    Awesome lens! I just created a lens focusing on the Southern California coast. I was born and raised in Los Angeles and have been a beach girl my whole life. I created this lens for everyone from tourists to Angelenos to get an insider's view on the beautiful and diverse beaches of SoCal. Check it out when you get a chance!
    Warmth,
    Valerie
